Creating a Strategic HR Organization with a Digital Workforce

Human Resources organizations are at the nexus of business demands and the employee experience. HR is challenged to deliver on both fronts amid accelerating change with fewer resources.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) combined with AI is designed to free HR professionals by handling manual, repetitive, data-intensive work 10x faster and with 100% accuracy.

When it comes to the question of who is responsible for employee engagement, Culture Amp people scientist Sahra Kaboli-Nejad says there are two schools of thought on the matter: individuals own responsibility and managers and organizations own responsibility.

Kaboli-Nejad points out each has its own set of pros and cons, but the best approach is one that “empowers individuals at all levels of the organization to be accountable.”

She says: “This will encourage managers to empower employees to take action on the things they have control over (e.g., continuous learning), while simultaneously holding managers and the organization responsible for system-level impacts on individual-level experiences (e.g., poor resourcing).”

If you are looking to improve your employee engagement, culture or are working to get leadership buy-in then this conversation is for you! Join this webinar and hear how a leading media conglomerate has revolutionised their people and culture strategy with employee engagement data. Sharing key learnings along the way, you will leave this webinar with clear takeaways that will help you succeed in your organisations journey for cultural change.

How to improve your people and culture strategy

How people data can aid culture change

Creating a Digital Ready Culture: How HR can Drive the Technology Strategy

Given the impact of the coronavirus on the globe, organisations are taking a close look at their technology stack. How did it perform? Was the company able to react successfully to sustain the business and keep employees working? Regardless, organisations want to be in the best position to respond to the next pandemic or crisis. HR is in a unique position to lead that discussion, especially when it comes to keeping employees engaged and productive digitally.

Day 2 – 17 June 2020

10:00 – 10:45am

The Rise of Virtual Development : Will virtual leadership development take off in the face of COVID-19?

Using Technology to Keep Employees Connected and Safe

The way we work could be poised to change dramatically as we move through this global pandemic with more meetings, projects and systems going virtual. What then does the future of leadership development look like?

Join Carl Sanders-Edwards and Lucy Hogarth as they discuss the eco-system approach Fonterra adopted for their frontline leadership programme. The aim was to democratise leadership development and make it available to more leaders around the world, leveraging technology to do so. The approach was finalised just as the world went into a state of lockdown.

HR finds itself in a new era. The employee experience economy is growing at cheetah speed. Research found In Deloitte’s Global Human Capital Trends report states 80% of executives feel employee experience as being important or very important. That said, however, only 22% feel their respective companies are good at building a unique experience for everyone. Worse still, nearly 60% say their companies aren’t ready to address the challenge.

From this session:

Learn how to build the internal experience economy

Best ways to gather feedback from the workforce

How training, manager development and self-directed learning influence the employee and ensure employee retention.
